4MB is MUCH MUCH easier to work in than 1.44, especially if I can
use a
compressed RAMDISK (how much ram do these suckers have). In 4MB, I
could probably even squeeze in the tiny X server (for a "thin client"
image).
It sounds like you have the expertise that Scott needs to make the
point of
sale client disks very quickly. Perhaps PriceBusters can pay you for
the
customization job and showing Scott how to build it himself. Scott? =)
Payment isn't required. All I ask is that I be able to quote the job
on my resume.
Yes. Yes. Yes (again) As this project becomes successful, you will
have as many quotes as you desire.
As for flash disks, I don't know what kind you're using, but I'm a fan
of those little CF to IDE converters (that run the CF card in IDE
compat
mode), they're about $10 each at the place I've found (I'll have to
find
it again :) and you can just put a normal CF card on them.

I tried the IDE flash disks from here. Works very well.

Here are the places I looked:
http://flashmemory.com.au/shop/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=3&cat=FlashMemory+
Disk+Drives
There was another one, but that one seems to have decent prices,
thought he overseas shipping might kill you.
This sounds very, very promising.
